Melted Wax Paper
These papers are very beautiful and can be used on their own or as embellishments for other projects.
The Process & Materials
- stove
- skillet lined with foil
- paper towels
- chop stick or pencil
- crayons, remove paper covering
Set the stove to medium heat
- Make circles with the crayons letting the colors pool & mix together
- If the wax starts to smoke turn the heat down
- The foil can be wiped clean while hot if you want to change colors
- Use the stick to press the paper onto the wax as well as to lift the paper off the pan when finished
- The papers will cool and dry very quickly
Can you please clarify this step:
Use the stick to press the paper onto the wax as well as to lift the paper off the pan when finished
I don't understand. When you make circles with the crayons (step 1), are they done on the foil covered skillet or on the paper?
How do you use the stick to press the paper onto the wax and to life the paper off the pan? I mean, how does the stick adhere to the paper? I would imagine it to be difficult to do without using a kitchen tongs or something similar!
please email me the response to [email protected]
Jazak Allah khair and keep up the beautiful work! You are incredibly talented and artistic, mashAllah.
